Actor Dick Van Dyke, who turns 99 next month, suggested he would happily not be around to see the next four years under President-elect Donald Trump’s second term in the White House.
While some celebrities threaten to leave the United States in response to the 2024 presidential election results, Van Dyke’s Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) has taken an even more radical turn, with the actor saying he is grateful he won’t be alive to experience the 45th president’s second term.
“Fortunately, I won’t be around to experience the four years,” the Mary Poppins star said in response to a reporter who asked, “Do you think Donald Trump is capable of making America great again?” according to a report by Daily Mail.
After being asked, “Does the future look bright for America?” Van Dyke replied, “I hope you’re right,” while his wife reacted by saying, “Oh man.”
Notably, the actor endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris in an Election Eve Instagram post in which he bizarrely likened the 2024 election and today’s political climate to the U.S. Civil Rights Movement by reading a speech he had originally delivered at an event with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on May 31, 1964. …

A spike in individual posts on a thread?
I don’t obsess over such things, sorry. Never mind on a thread that is not actually about the man.
Opus?
Bizarre, that made no sense at all, you are posting an opus over being embarrassed about your fake MLK posts?
No, I’m asking you if you’re posting opuses. I care nothing for speculation about MLK had he lived, nor do I care for misrepresentations of the man no matter the nature. Have a nice day.
Okay Dick, have a nice funeral then.
“”””I haven’t seen any conservatives who “pretend MLK would have been a Republican”””””
“””””Oh? Why do I keep missing those then? and I’ve been here for a little over 15 years, so I should have seen at least one by now.””””””
Post 141 clears all that up for you, you are welcome.

O.K. Get on with it, Dick.
Post 141 was a simple correction about MLK claims and FR, no reason for you to get so hostile and personal.
You seem to have a thing for MLK but not know much about him, judging from your many MLK posts on this thread.
With all due respect, I’m not responding to any more of your bizarre off-topic posts on this subject. Have a nice day.
Thank you.
He also has a severe case of TDS.
Sounds to me like he's a dyed in the wool yellow dog democrat. If so, he doesn't deserve the excuse of old age. He's certainly done his share of damage to the republic by supporting democrats for decades.
Maybe Dick had no problems with Biden. Except for the high price of about everything, neither was I affected much, but generally speaking his his plans for the U.S. were really horrible, especially in the future. Maybe you have no care for the future at your age, but I am aged myself & his programs did not look good for the future for younger Americans.
for later
